Found Deceased Sweden - Maline, 31, Landskrona, 23 Dec 2021

  • #61
Thank you. I felt her name must have the E because official sources spelled it that way. But on Facebook, I can’t find her, with the E. There are lots of Malins, but not Malines, which suggests the more common spelling is without the E.

Has she perhaps changed the spelling of her name for friends etc? Does the added E change the pronunciation? Is it similar to being called Elizabeth, but being called Liz or Libby for short?

Sorry to be so focused on this, but it seems there remains confusion regarding identifying her in Facebook etc. The spelling is part of this confusion, for me at least. Has an official photo of her been released by the police?

Yes her name is Maline in Sweden Maline and Malin are completely different names according to my boyfriend although they sound so similar. As LemonMint mentioned she is not using her real surname on Facebook. Malin seems to be more popular name here.

Her Facebook is under this name:
Maline Adrijana Leijah

However, she is not using her last name Persson on her FB account.

Maline seems to be her official name although the more common version in Sweden is “Malin.”

Yes, there are multiple pictures of her in the links attached to this thread earlier.

This one is by the police: 25 december 17:15, Försvunnen person, Landskrona | Polismyndigheten

Thank you again. So sorry I got confused about asking about the photos. I’ve been looking at a few missing people this morning and I had seen them, but got a bit muddled. It must have seemed like I was too lazy to find them myself. Sorry again.

Maline, 31, försvann spårlöst i julas – det här vet vi om fallet

For almost two weeks, police and volunteers have been searching for Maline, 31, who disappeared without a trace in Landskrona the day before Christmas Eve. - She has not been seen since, says Calle Persson, press spokesperson at the police region south, to Nyheter24.

It was a relative who reported the 31-year-old Maline missing after she had neither been seen nor heard from since the early morning of 23 December.

Then, at 04:00, an acquaintance made observations of Maline in her apartment on Föreningsgatan in central Landskrona.

- She has not been seen since, says Calle Persson, press spokesperson at the police region south, to Nyheter24.

The hours before Maline's disappearance

The police have managed to map large parts of the evening before Maline's disappearance.

For Expressen, it has been confirmed, among other things, that the 31-year-old visited a billiard club in Landskrona, which she left at 11 pm together with several others in her company.

After that, she attended an after-party in the apartment building where she also lived.

Investigated as suspected kidnapping

But that's where the tracks end. Extensive investigative work is now underway where a number of people have been heard in the case, which is classified as suspected kidnapping.

- We have not been able to rule out that this could be the reason for her disappearance, Persson says to Nyheter24 and continues


We have talked to people who have a connection to her: acquaintances, family members, employers, colleagues. Yes, quite simply people we think may have information to provide.

The police have received tips from the public

The police, who, among other things, searched for Maline at a nearby hospital and who cooperate with several authorities to find her, have previously appealed for tips from the public.

- The tips we have received are of a classic nature. Those who know who this person is and can provide information based on that, but also tips from people who think they have seen her or someone similar to her, says Persson.

But so far, the tips have not led to any findings that took the investigation further.

Extensive search efforts in Landskrona

The police, who according to Kvällsposten carried out a drone search in Landskrona on 1 January, currently have no planned searches in the future.

- We search based on the tips that come in or search if the investigation should point in any particular direction, so we have no planned search efforts, Persson states.

At the same time, the voluntary organization FIKK has carried out its own searches in and around Landskrona.

Not linked to Eirin's death during Christmas 2019

According to information to Aftonbladet, Maline, during the evening before the disappearance, must have been at the same club as 43-year-old Eirin who during Christmas 2019 disappeared in Landskrona and was later found dead.

But according to Persson, there is nothing in the investigation to indicate that Eirin's death and Maline's disappearance were related.

- There is nothing to indicate any connection between those events.

Have you seen Maline or do you have other information about her? Call the police on telephone number 114 14. Is it an emergency? Call 112

Really sad news. Sorry I'm so late to the thread, guys. I'm home in the US, and my Wifi is garbage. Only periodically checking in.

If I see any pertinent news about this case on Twitter, or any SM, I'll come back and post, and I'll def be back to see how this transpires.

I find the previous Landskrona case a couple of Christmas's ago very interesting! That's a giant coincidence, imo.

Happy New Year, all! <3

Försvunna Maline i Landskrona hittad död

She was found outside on Tuesday in the eastern outskirts of Landskrona. No cause of death has yet been determined.

and

Försvunna Maline, 31, hittad död utomhus

According to Lundqvist, it is currently unclear what the cause of death is.

- It is not possible to exclude anything, he says.

According to information to Kvällsposten, police technicians have been on site at an industrial area in the eastern parts of the city.

I'm so sorry to see this news. :(
My condolences to Maline's loved ones.

If she was found in an industrial area as posted above, I find it unlikely she went there on her own for whatever reason. If foul play is involved, I hope the perpetrator will be brought to justice.
I still find the similarities to Eirin's death too coincidental.

I feel the same way, I find it too coincidental for Maline and Eirin to disappear with so many similarities and both found dead in such a small town. Now we have to wait for the autopsy results and hope it will shine some light on what happened to her.

Found just North of the train station.

"The previously missing woman Maline, 31, from Landskrona has today been found dead.

On Tuesday, the police searched with drones in an area near the train station in Landskrona. ...

Police technicians were on site next to the company Ahlsells, which is a stone's throw from the railway, during the late afternoon. According to police, Maline was found nearby, outdoors - about 1.5 kilometers from her home......

She is found in the northern part of the station area. That's what I can say, says Kent Persson, head of the preliminary investigation, serious crime police in Helsingborg.

By 6 pm, a number of photographers and journalists had arrived at the site, which is close to an industrial area in the eastern parts of Landskrona. By then, the police had lifted the blockade."

More info about the area where she was found .


In the Northern Industrial Area, several high-tech companies have chosen to establish themselves. There are also many smaller industrial companies in the area, including construction technology, but also smaller sales offices in the industry.

Yet another article in “English” to confirm the sad news:

Maline found dead in Landskrona – disappeared 23 December

My warmest condolences to Maline’s family, friends and colleagues.

As many of you say, I as well think both Maline’s and Eirin’s disappearances are suspicious because of all those similarities (in a rather small town, too). Let’s wait for the autopsy results :(

I agree. Both Maline and Eirin’s disappearances are very strange and the similarities are disturbing. I was particularly taken by the fact that they looked so alike and both disappeared and were found dead at similar times of year. I hope the police look into every possible eventually. In the meantime, my thoughts are with both families. This is a terrible tragedy for Maline’s family and friends and a terrible reminder for Eirin’s.

I read today that the autopsy results should be available on Friday, and at that time a decision will be made regarding "kidnapped" or other reason for missing that resulted in death.

"He does not expect any further information until Friday.

Until then, the heading on suspected kidnapping remains. But it will of course change, in one direction or another, says Kent Persson."

Autopsy results delayed until early next week.

"On Friday, the police hoped to get the answers they needed to proceed with the case - but the message from the forensic doctors will be delayed until the beginning of next week.
...

The answer from the forensic doctors will hopefully give the police guidance - if Maline has fallen victim to a murderer, or if the death has been an accident."

what is the population of the town?

ETA: - I found the answer - it was 33,000 in 2013 so not sure how much it has grown since then

is there a thread here for the other victim? and when did she go missing?

Has the autopsy been delayed because more testing needs to be done?

Would that indicate cause of death isn't obvious or straightforward?

No thread, but found this English link..
Missing woman found dead in Sweden (newsinenglish.no)
2020
''The body of a Norwegian woman who disappeared in the southern Swedish city of Landskrona on Christmas Eve was found during the weekend, washed up on a nearby beach. An attorney for the family of 43-year-old Eirin Mikkelsen told state broadcaster NRK that they’d been “prepared for the worst.”

''She was last seen in Landskrona’s harbour area late Christmas Eve. Divers, drones and specially trained dogs were used in the search for her, after Swedish police deemed her disappearance as “suspicious.” It was initially investigated as a possible kidnapping of the woman, who had been living in Sweden''
